The Effectiveness of Phase II Price Controls,

Abstract

The paper discusses the use of price controls as a facade for maintaining restraints on unions which appears to become impossible when the controls are clearly proven to be ineffective and the public becomes aware of it. Other methods other than price controls are noted that will ensure wage earners that they do not bear the entire burden of fighting inflation. Such methods include an increase in corporation income taxes or more progressive personal income taxes.
